1
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 1: Bonjoorno, my wonderful listener, my dear listener, I hope you

2
00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:17,279
Speaker 1: are feeling amazing. I hope that you feel the love

3
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,599
Speaker 1: of God and everything that you do today. That you

4
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: see God in the plants in the sky and the

5
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 1: sun and the moon and the stars. That you feel

6
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 1: the presence of the Great Spirit today. That's my wish

7
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 1: and my prayer for you. May the universe give you

8
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:42,879
Speaker 1: a big healing hug. So I'm here sitting on my

9
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 1: meditation Matt. The sun is coming through my bathroom window

10
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:51,880
Speaker 1: because that's where I meditate in my restroom. I don't

11
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:53,479
Speaker 1: know why. It just feels very safe for me. I

12
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 1: have a little altar here, and I love getting sun kissed.

13
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: It feels so nice. Banchho's joy today. He's sitting right

14
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,319
Speaker 1: at my feet, and I wanted to share my devotional

15
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:13,279
Speaker 1: with you today. Today is the three hundred and eighth

16
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: day of the year. I know we're almost at the

17
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,759
Speaker 1: end of the year. It's so crazy. So the title

18
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: is today I am more alert to the needs of others.

19
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 1: How self sabotaging is my selfishness when I look but

20
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 1: do not see the suffering of others. To seldom do

21
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: I notice the courage of those who wake up each

22
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: day and do their best with painful circumstances. Today I

23
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: will be more alert to the suffering of others. It

24
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 1: is hard to face in ourselves the trait of self centeredness,

25
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: but in facing it, we are saved from it. The

26
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: only way to truly love ourselves is to open our

27
00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: hearts to each other. Generosity toward others is an act

28
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: of self interest, for in loving others, I attract more love.

29
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: May no one else is suffering be meaningless to me

30
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 1: that I might know the meaning of life. Free me

31
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: from a selfish heart. Amen. And the reason I wanted

32
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: to read this one to you guys is because, as

33
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:20,799
Speaker 1: we all know, there's a lot going on in the world.

34
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 1: There are people starving, being starved intentionally every day, if

35
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 1: not every other day or way too soon. They're being bombed,

36
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 1: and lives are being taken, women and children and men,

37
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: and it's just so sad. And the States we're dealing

38
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:45,959
Speaker 1: with immigration reformation in a very inhumane way. In my opinion,

39
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: we may not have the same beliefs, but I think

40
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: that as human beings we should at least not celebrate

41
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 1: people suffering. Good feel compassion. I'm a very empathetic person.

42
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 1: I feel everyone's feelings, and I'm working on neutralizing that

43
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: a little and finding balance in that. But I feel

44
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 1: that people are losing a bit of sensitivity. We're being

45
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 1: what's the word desensitized. I think it's desensitized with everything,

46
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 1: you know, we see way too much. Some people don't

47
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: even care. Some people laugh, some people say yeah, good,

48
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: they deserve it. And I just could never even if

49
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: I don't agree, even if I don't understand, because usually

50
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: it's not understanding where the problem lies. It's not even

51
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: wanting to try to understand where the problem lies, in

52
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: my opinion, So all I'm saying is, let's look outside

53
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: of ourselves and our situation and yeah, maybe we're fine.

54
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: Maybe yeah we have played on. I mean, maybe we

55
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: have food on our plates and money in our accounts

56
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: and a roof over our head, But there are people

57
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: that don't. Instead of just turning the other cheek, send

58
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 1: positive vibes, send love and light, and if you can't

59
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: do that, at least don't laugh at them. At least

60
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 1: don't celebrate people suffering. And that's all I just had

61
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: that in my heart to share with you. Guys, I

62
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: have a feeling that my listeners are amazing, and you

63
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 1: guys are probably a lot like me. Even when I'm

64
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: on the freeway and I see an accident that just

65
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: happened yesterday, I was extending my hands and praying for them,

66
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 1: I'm like, God, I hope they have insurance. I hope

67
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 1: they're okay. I hope they didn't get too hurt or

68
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: hurt at all. You know, I always do that. I

69
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 1: could just drive by it. It's not my problem. But

70
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: I'm sending love and light and prayers and good vibes

71
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: to them because I never know, and God forbid that's

72
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: me next time, you know. And that's the way we

73
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 1: got to see things. It's paying it forward, and it's energetic,

74
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,919
Speaker 1: and what we give is what we get. And we

75
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: just have to keep that in mind and do it

76
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,160
Speaker 1: from a pure place. Not do it because it sounds right,

77
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: or do it because I'm telling you. Let it sit,

78
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: let it marinate, and see how you feel and see

79
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 1: if it's something that comes naturally and a desire that

80
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 1: grows more and more inside of you. But always do

81
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: everything from a pure place, from a genuine place. But anyway,

82
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 1: like I said, I think you guys are wonderful. But

83
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: if this is something you think someone in your life

84
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,039
Speaker 1: needs or they need a little more compassion for others,

85
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,159
Speaker 1: send it to them. I'm saying this with love and

86
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 1: respect because I always want the best for you, guys.

87
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,720
Speaker 1: I want the best for us. I'm learning, I'm growing

88
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: every day, and as I learn, as I grow, I

89
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 1: share everything with you, guys. So thank you for being here,

90
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: thank you for listening, and go kick but today go

91
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 1: do it. And if you already did and you're laying down,

92
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:17,359
Speaker 1: have a great night's rest a big kiss. I love you, Sincerely,

93
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:23,719
